Boots are incredibly comfortable and light. Walked around for 6 hours the first day I wore them, no blisters, feet weren't sore, and they kept my feet dry in ankle deep mud and water.

What do you see? Cthulu?

Frownland 09-15-2015 08:20 AM

An odd crocodile type thing. It's mainly the eyes.

Haven't got them yet, arriving tomorrow. Do you have them?

LoathsomePete 09-30-2015 11:34 AM

I have the M50's, no the M50x. The think the only difference is the detachable cable which I decided was a feature not worth an extra $20.

Cuthbert 09-30-2015 11:43 AM

Can you still even get the M50s? No difference in sound just what you said really.

These were £90.

LoathsomePete 09-30-2015 11:50 AM

You got a really good deal then because they're $169 on Amazon, which according to Google equals 112 pounds. As for the availability of the M-50's, they're still around, but I also got mine in December of last year so maybe they were more prevalent back then?

Cuthbert 09-30-2015 11:56 AM

Cheers. Dunno, I'd have got those if they were available, they went down to £85 last year but I just didn't end up getting them. lol these were on Amazon, maybe cheaper over here.

DwnWthVwls 09-30-2015 12:56 PM

^Dendrologist?

I have a tree that needs identification. Should I post a pic?

DwnWthVwls 09-30-2015 03:18 PM

Sure but this is my first class seriously getting into foresty. We only covered 62 trees in the first 4 weeks *sarcasm*

I could give you some resources if I can't figure it out myself. Where do you live?

What is it? My first thought was a Cenobite's masturbation aide but it's too virginal white for that.

Chicago south suburbs.

My roomie says he has no idea what kind of tree this is. He says it's retarded since it blooms (not sure what) in the middle of winter:

Hard to tell from the pictures and my books just came in. Do you know anything about the flowers? Might not even be native, looks like it was planted for ornamental purposes. I don't wanna give in and ask my teacher though.

I'm looking though!

You know those things you used to put play dough into as a kid? You'd smash the pedal thingy and the dough would come out in strands of fun shapes like swirls and stars and curls? It does that but to vegetables like zuchinni and brocolli.

From what I remember, they're white. That's all I know. Thanks for looking into it.

Just bought my first house yesterday. It has all the charm of a home built in the mid-20s and many modern amenities like a new tear-off roof, new plumbing, electrical, heat, energy windows, etc. The original hardwood flooring and gumwood trim is intact but the fireplace was updated to a gas fireplace... not a choice I would have made but it will come in handy should the power ever go out in the winter.

The one thing it DOESN'T have is ceiling lighting. So I went to work furnishing the home with antique lamps.

Spoiler for Click here and check them out!:
This bridge lamp just arrived in the post and I had it rewired and shaded by a local antique lamp company this afternoon. It makes a world of difference in lighting my office.

http://i.imgur.com/kFBNJX8.jpg

This one was the last purchase before the one above - a swing arm lamp with the same services performed by the local shop.

http://i.imgur.com/eQHlAoK.jpg

This brass table lamp was an antique store find, but I'll be re-shading it when the right shade presents itself.

http://i.imgur.com/TQiuxkx.jpg

And this desk lamp was found atop a neighbor's trash can. There's a torn bit of the fabric... which simply means I face that side to the wall. One man's trash...

http://i.imgur.com/n9oZ1AC.jpg

Lots of miscellaneous purchases for the new home, but the lighting has been the most fun thus far.

Cuthbert 10-10-2015 03:35 PM

Congrats mate.

innerspaceboy 10-10-2015 04:10 PM

Thanks Tennis!

Another finishing touch to make the house a home - This piece just came back from the frame shop yesterday - TIME Magazine, May 8, 1939 with James Joyce on the cover.

Mine and my fiance's favorite author interviewed by TIME upon the publication of Finnegans Wake and printed just months before his death.

Spoiler for I'm so happy to have this piece of history commemorated on the wall of our home.:

Aux-In 10-11-2015 12:01 AM

Got this desk fan for $16.

Fiance is finishing unpacking the last of her boxes, we're planning for the Housewarming Party, and my new retro-chic cassette-cased key ring commemorating Steve Steigman's iconic Blown Away print now proudly carries my house keys.

Everything's comin' up Milhouse.

Found these in the local thrift store. £20. Nicest boots I've ever worn. Real comfy. Woohoo. :)

Wtf you're not a rocker chick from Michigan.

Mr. Charlie 10-14-2015 06:58 AM

I don't think they're womens as they're pretty wide at the front, but then I'm no expert. And if they are, I don't care, they fit perfect.

They do look girly, but there's nothing wrong with that.
I'd probably wear pumps if I could.

DwnWthVwls 10-14-2015 01:29 PM

It just looks like something Carpe would post about. No offense meant to you Charlie.

Mr. Charlie 10-14-2015 04:27 PM

None taken. It's all good. Maybe I have women's feet? ;)

We need pictures of your feet.
For...eh...purely scientific, non-pervy reasons.
